Even if it is a journey of one day and one night, Chen Ju feels that it is not far away at this moment, because he is almost completely in a state of sleeplessness, and he has been traveling under the stars and nights.

In fact, even Chen Ju himself didn't know why he was so desperate.

Perhaps, if Xiao Yanheng really dies, he will also become a thorn in the side of King Wei.

Reliable with his ability, if you just want to find a place to hide, it is not too difficult, you can find a small mountain village and spend the rest of your life leisurely.

Facing Xiao Yanheng, who didn't trust himself and even killed himself for a while, why did he ...... Want to be so desperate to save her?

Along the way, Chen Ju kept hinting to himself that Xiao Yanheng must still be alive, even in the face of the intrigues of King Wei, with the presence of hundreds of civil and military officials, and a whole guard, Xiao Yanheng will definitely be able to escape safely.

When Chen Ju arrived at the top of Mount Tai, he was already exhausted, his body was crumbling, and even the war horse could not control it, so he had to move forward on foot, but even so, he never stopped at all.

Because...... He could feel that the empress in white, who was high in the sky, the wind that belonged to her had just blown up, and it should never stop here.

But when Chen Ju climbed the mountain, what caught his eye at this moment was a void of ashes.

The flames had been completely extinguished, and countless charred gray carbon remained on the ground, and at this moment the ritual field was full of white bones, and countless people had struggled and roared here, but in the end it was to no avail.

Not only the burning of the flames, but also the saltpeter and horse dung buried here, with the power of gunpowder, are enough to turn the entire mountain into a human purgatory.

"Your Majesty......"

"Your Majesty......"

"Xiao Yanheng, Xiao Yanheng, you come out for me!"

Chen Ju suddenly felt the qi and blood in his body surging, he didn't have much affection for this woman, but at this moment, his heart was like a knife, and he felt that he had lost the most important territory in his life.

"I know you're alive!"

"This kind of little trick can't fool you at all, you give it to me!"

"Aren't you going to sweep away those obstacles and become the First Emperor of the Ages?"

"Lao Tzu has put so much effort into helping you, and you have always thought that Lao Tzu will rebel, if you don't believe in Lao Tzu, is it possible that you are dead like this now?"

Chen Ju took a deep breath and slumped to the ground.

At this moment, countless thoughts flooded his mind, and the most thought was where he should go after Xiao Yanheng died.

Even if there is no Xiao Yanheng, he can live very safely, and he no longer has to be frightened, nor does he have to be persecuted by Xiao Yanheng in every way.

However, he can sincerely realize that although Xiao Yanheng is strong, she is just an ordinary woman after all.

He knew very well in his heart that what a real dragon son was, it was all a false lie, in the final analysis, the emperor was no different from ordinary people, with the same blood flowing in his body, he would fail, he would be afraid, and he would be born, old, sick and die.

But it is such a woman, but she has persevered until now by her own efforts, and she has imagined that one day she can help her ascend to that supreme position and stabilize the current country.

Compared with the loss of Xiao Yanheng, what made Chen Ju even more unacceptable was his own failure.

I always feel that no matter what I do, I am just having fun, but in fact, in this era, human life is as light as a mustard, and the slightest mistake of oneself will bring terrible consequences of rivers of blood.

"You shit, you're really dead here......"

"Come on, Lao Tzu is also relaxed, no one will care about anyone in the future, and there will be no need to think about being cleansed all day long, but it's a pity that you have to run away quickly, so as not to be targeted by that old bastard of King Wei."

"It's good to be dead, it's good to be dead, when I go back, I'll take your concubines and run away quickly."

Although Chen Ju was unforgiving, he couldn't laugh all the time, but he felt that his heart was empty, and he slowly found a stone to sit down next to him.

But at this moment, in the corner beside Chen Ju, a faint sound suddenly sounded.

This voice was extremely familiar to Chen Ju, and it made a smile appear on Chen Ju's face.

"You...... Fang Cai's words are disrespectful to me. ”

"When I get back, I'm going to send you to the cleansing room."

Xiao Yanheng was covered in dust and got up from the corner silently, with many injuries of varying degrees on his body, and even his fair cheeks were stained with a lot of blood.

"You can survive this fire......"

Chen Ju's pupils trembled slightly, and he once thought that he had seen a hallucination.

"The fire here burned all night, and if it weren't for the last moment, my guards fought to the death, dug a hole in the ground, and then used their bodies to hold down the stones to guard the entrance of the cave, I guess I would probably be more than lucky."

"Aren't you locked up in the palace, though? Why was it able to run out? ”

Xiao Yanheng couldn't help but ask.

At this moment, Xiao Yanheng was already extremely weak, even his tone became a little lower, and his body was even weaker, and he fell to the ground as soon as he got up.

Chen Ju hurriedly helped Xiao Yanheng up, and also saw the hole behind her.

Relying on manpower, under the fire, he could only hurriedly dig out such a small hole, and there were many corpses that were burned black outside, it seemed that it was these guards who fought to the death to save Xiao Yanheng from the disaster.

"It's not easy for you to survive."

"I should be blamed for this incident, I have long felt that something is wrong, but I didn't think in time that King Wei would dare to do such a rebellious thing."

Chen Ju let out a long sigh, he wanted to carry Xiao Yanheng on his back, but he came all the way, and he was already exhausted, and he couldn't take extra strength to take care of the other party.

The two simply lay together in the ruins full of embers, mocking each other, but the corners of their mouths invariably showed a slight smile.

"When I attended the ceremony on the mountain, the other officials were waiting at the bottom of the mountain, and the hundreds of guards who accompanied me up the mountain this time were almost all lost."

"Even if you can go down the mountain, almost all the civil and military officials have been controlled by the King of Wei, plus you have to face the elite brought by the King of Wei, I'm afraid it will be ......"

"Even if we survive here, we won't be able to make it back."

Xiao Yanheng smiled and spoke, but his tone was not dignified, as if he had already looked down on life and death.

"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must not give up. The emperor of this country is still you, as long as you are alive and we return to the palace, the king of Wei will not dare to do anything to us anymore. ”
